Argh, discipline Italy.

Taking that 3 could come back to haunt them.

14 v 13.

There was barely any contact but head contact nonetheless

A bit of Lynagh brilliance to get a try for the historic win!

Discipline letting them down.

More reviews than NFL

Careless entry into the ruck results in an elbow to the face but everyone thinks it’s a “rugby play”. So carry on.

Fuck Skinstad is such a biased cockhole. Ridiculous.

Pretty unfair, there's no way Mostert was expecting to have to make a tackle there. Just bracing himself for impact after being surprised by a ball carrier changing direction.

I presume you’re taking the piss

Nah man, why would you be expecting a player to use footwork? Not only that, you're advancing at a player that could well be carrying the ball when you meet, so there's no way you'd even think you might have to tackle them. Outrageous.

I am genuinely flummoxed

Oh, so that reasoning doesn't work now? I'm facetiously flummoxed. There was hardly even any force, Mostert went just as far back as Garbisi, you can see it in his feet.

Skinstad thinks the same as you

Led with shoulder, other arm tucked, straight to chin

If that’s not a RC I honestly don’t know what the fuck is

Ok now I'm genuinely flummoxed. If only that was the case when teams did it against black. Consistency, right?

That’s what I started with

We can’t go backwards only forwards

Consistency two weeks in a row

It’s a start

Am I behind or are you referring to the ruck clearout? Looked like a shoulder to me, but can't see a heck of a lot wrong.

Yeah bizarre it wasn't.

Snyman lost that cold as he hit the ground.

But an attacking lineout for Italy.

A terrible exit by Italy.

Fucks sake Italy. Like Argentina a decade or two ago.

Jaw dropping feet by Moodie though.

Italy in the same foot shooting club as Wales

Pathetic

SA are relentless fair play

Italy were destined to lose when they went for 3 points as SA were reduced to 13. You have to score tries and put scoreboard pressure on the Boks. That was their chance. They choked.

Rassie doesn't trust his "B" props. By the 25th minute, both Steenkamp and Louw have been called to replace the starters. I don't know if Louw has 60 minutes in his legs.

I doubt that's the case - he just knows he can bring them back on later when there's an "injury".

Rassie is clever and works within the laws.

It isn’t his fault the laws encourage abuse of subs. It is like watching rolling subs in league at times.

Italy have played the way the Boks would have wanted them to. Kept it narrow, kicked possession and played attritional rugby. Meat and drink for the Boks.

Too many bad choices by Italy. Easy goal kicks missed did not allow them to put more pressure on SA. Willemsee, Smith and Moody were outstanding. A class above the rest.

Fuck that's cheeky by Capuozo. His flanker might want a word.

Italy are a third rate team. What a disappointing performance after the red. Hats off to SA though, they sure know how to win.

@MiketheSnow nice try.
